Category ATC

I was in a not so bright mood last weekend and painting with pink DID help to get into a better mood again. 🙂 This is just a little bit bigger than an ATC. I used recycled cardboard from a cereal box, scraped some acrylic paint as first layer and then the kitty just happened. […]

…with a glimpse on my desk and into my handmade calendar for 2014. I hope to be able to post to woyww and ppf more regularly this year! I love to see what’s going on on other desks and easels 🙂 I wish I could provide nicer, more crisp pictures. The light situation isn’t the best here […]
